About Me
I am Mrs. Dickerson! I am a mystery book lover and absolutely enjoy getting to create spaces to encourage a love for reading with lots of hands on experiences as well! I love reading, coffee, and dark chocolate and would love to spend my summer reading in my hammock but my 2 boys won't let me sit that long!
